Just wondering if anyone else is having problems with Canasta and Pinochle. With Canasta, after I finish (or my auto finishes) a game, the popup that comes up "play again" never comes up. It just sits there frozen winter31.gif. Have to get out and come back in, therefore losing my progress. This happens on all three browsers I try (Chrome, IE 9, Sea Monkey).
So I decided to try Pinochle. Same thing happening it just freezes. weather38.gif, no pop up to start new game and I have to go out and come back in.
Anyone else have this problem? Really frustrating as I'm trying to rank out my second screen name and I'm stuck with these two!

Both of those games are Java. Try clearing out Java. click control panel look for Java click then click settings and clear files.

I have also seen this, especially if I have left the computer on for more than a day and did not clear java, clear internet files and reboot.
As always, you should do the following daily or before you run a long session:
1) Close all browsers. Chrome is a preferred browser because closing it automatically cleans some temporary files.
2) Run Java Options and clear temporary files.
3) Run Internet Options and clear temporary files. Do not clear cookies if you want Pogo to remember your password/passwords.
4) Empty recycle bin
5) Reboot the computer
You should so the following once per week
1) Run a complete virus scan with the anti-virus software of your choice. I currently use IO Bit.
2) Turn off your computer and leave it off for at least 30 minutes
3) Run scan disk and follow any suggestions to clear files
4) Run disk defragmenter
5) Install any updates to Windows/Java as suggested by those vendors (not just because Pogo suggests it)
Some of these once per week steps I have the program schedule. Usually, I schedule them to run Monday evening, since early Tuesday morning is Pogo's maintenance window. My computer is powerful enough to do a virus check, do scan disk, defrag AND play a game like Omaha poker.
